Hat Channel Extension
Please be sure to verify your piece count to avoid delays on your build and additional shipping costs.
Do not base your quantity on the window count alone, there is often one or two additional hat channel ribs lurking behind the skins! Gutting your interior first will ensure the most accurate count.
Once gutted, you will be able to identify whether you require the deep or shallow style channel (*Deep roughly 1 7/8" *Shallow roughly 1 1/2").
Some buses (such as AmTram and Carpenter) have additional structual tubing inside the hat channel. This style requires a different product. It is reccommended to remove a trim cap on the exterior rib that falls between the windows to verify your rig has the additional tubing.
We also DO NOT reccomend raising any rig higher than 20". If your build requires a length greater than 20", or you desire a length that is between the three offered sizes, please fill out our "Request a Quote" form on the home page and we will provide a custom quote based on your length requirements.
